Paul, I find it strange that you seem willing to state an opinion
which rates an S&S B over the Steingraeber without having ever seen a
Steingreaber. Might your views have something to do with the fact
that you have been doing 'rebuilding' work for the local S&S dealer?
I know both Will Truitt and Udo Steingraeber personally.
Will has a sharp mind and an even handed temperament. Many would
stand to learn a lot from his wisdom should they care to listen.
Udo Steingraeber is one of the few real piano men of our generation
who is making a real contribution towards the world of pianos in his
own lifetime, and not being satisfied merely to reproduce outdated
designs from a century ago. I 'take my hat off' to Mr Steingraeber,
and you would do well to reserve your judgement of his instruments
until such time as you actually get to see one.
